The Duality of Rarity.

Despite its scratchiness, there's a fair bit of artistry on display with this one. I don't see any... foundation lines? sketch marks? Whatever you call them. It looks like this was done very quickly, without much planning, and that sort of one-stroke design really sells the piece, along with the whole two-faced theme you have going on.

My only critique would be the halo—I think decreasing its size down would have made it easier to draw, and would make it look less like a flying saucer.

But I like it. I can picture this flashing by on the walls of the tunnel as my subway pulls into the station.

It's not lost on me that the original art (before the later red vandalism) is in green and purple. This does a marvelous job with subtext that I fear people aren't going to properly appreciate. The story behind this all but writes itself.

Great job with a minimalist aesthetic here, artist.

Thank you for the tarot explanation, as well as stating more of what you see here... I actually don’t see some colors very well, so that went completely over my head until you pointed it out!

Artist, this raises my esteem of the work. It’s simple but there’s clearly more going on beyond the obvious.

Yeah, very simple, artistically, but the visual metaphor is strong. I'm reminded of notebook sketches in middleschool, where a beloved crush tramples your heart, and the dreamy stuff gets vandalized by later reality.

Simple in symbolism and execution, but quite effective. Thanks for creating it, Artist!
